Adam and Katies 10/2/2010 SBP/Attic/?? ~ brainstorming!

[ghoulish delight]

Aww, Katie! You seem like you could use a big hug!

Between family drama, being pulled over for something silly by a cop and all that... you have good reason to be stressed! You poor girl! Hopefully it's all down hill from here for you, my dear!

By the way! Your kitchen looks great! Love the Mickey canisters!

Thanks sweetie! I'm feeling much better! I'm trying to let things just roll off of me... sometimes its harder than other but i'm working on being a strong Dis bride!

Thanks Meghan! Its not 100% complete we still need to finish painting, put on the hardware and put in new outlets but the bulk of it is done!

I got all the Mickey stuff from the disney store when it was on clearence. I have the canisters, salt and pepper shakers, a mickey kitchen clock, a white mickey serving plate, a black and white mickey fruit bowl and the spatula holders... hahahaha Mickey took over my kitchen! I'm not sure if they have them in the disney stores anymore but they might have them online.

Katie, the kitchen looks awesome! You guys did an awesome job! Such a good idea about finding a hobby, I guess mine should be working out but I haven't committed to it yet!

 

[MainStMandy]

Oh Katie the kitchen is beautiful!! I love the new counters!! If I lived closer, I would stop by with a bottle of wine

That's also exciting that you went with Beaute Speciale. I need to do more research!

 

[Lynn5700]

Hey Katie!! The kitchen looks great. Good job!

I'm so glad that you have decided to go with Ana! You will be in great hands. She is very talented.

Awe thanks Mandy! I'll drink a glass for you tonight!

And i'm going to be calling Beaute Speciale next week to confirm everything. I just have to double check how many BM's i'll be having (my sister is still being a pain ) But after doing the research they're the best choice for the money and the type of makeup i want done. You should check out their website, they have TON's of pictures of their work.... Lynn is even i there!

Hey Katie!! The kitchen looks great. Good job!

I'm so glad that you have decided to go with Ana! You will be in great hands. She is very talented.

Speaking on Lynn!!! Thanks, the kitchen was alot of work but WELL worth it!

I can't wait to have them do my hair and makeup! I haven't had that done since my senior prom!

you kitchen looks awesome Katie!!! I love the color, did you go with granite countertops or corian?

Thanks Sam! Its actually Laminate believe it or not! Its made by formica and its textured so it even feels like granite!

The kitchen is looking great!

Thanks Scarlet!

Whats with all the dancing smilies you might ask??



I'm going to be staying at BLT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


I found someone on the rent/trade boards and i emailed them with our dates and i know they can't book until 11 months out but they will have the points available and will hold them for us! I am so super excited! If DF would get off the phone I could tell him but instead i'm going to tell you girls!

They are a super nice couple, they sent me an email with the contract they usually have people sign, three references, they use only paypal for payment, AND they are on the boards alot so its not like they rent and run. They also sent me the link to the orange county registry of deeds (i think) that proves they own the timeshare in Disney. They provided me with their first and last name and also all their contact information. They own at almost all the DVC resorts so can get us in anywhere at the 11 month mark and they have done it alot before so they know how to stay safe! I can't wait to check in there! Something about it is getting me so amazingly excited i can't even tell you! I think i'm goning to faint! They even told me that if i change my mind on the resort from now until time to book they'd be happy to do that for me.... yea right like i'm going to change my mind! We aren't going to do a MK view just the SV but who cares?! they have a roof top deck to watch the fireworks from!!!

Ok i'm done with all my excitement... i'm going to try to distract DF enough so that he hangs up and comes to talk to me!

 

[Boardwalk_bride]

YAY!!! Good for you!!

Did you by any chance rent through the Song's? The description you wrote sounds the same as the people I booked from! They seem really nice!

 

[figment fan21]

OMG YES!!!!

You've already used them? or you are going to be using them??

 

[Boardwalk_bride]

I am using them for my wedding as well, for April 2010!! I already booked with them! What I like is that I already have a confirmation #, and there is a signed contract btwn both of us, and they only want 50% of the payment upfront!! The rest is not until 60 days before I beleive.

I wish I could have booked with them the whole time, but I could only afford to stay in BCV for a few nights, since the weekends there are literally double the price! And than converting into Cdn $ makes it higher...oh, which reminds me...HAPPY CANADA DAY!!! Plus, I kinda want to try out AKV, and that could be a good location for my trash the dress shoot, lol!

oh, ps...I really love your kitchen!! I wish DF and I were that handy.....and I wish we owned a house! lol But seriously, it looks as if you hired an expensive professional, great job!

Awesome! Thank you so much for the info! I was so glad i emailed them! I have a good feeling we won't be woried that we got scammed like we did last year when we rented points.

AKV's is awesome and their pool is amazing, it'd be a great place to do your trash the dress!

And yea DF is VERY handy! Part of why i'm marrying him! hahaha j/k! I'm glad you like the kitchen.

 

[teddygurl28]

yey! contrats on your BLT ....i mean your stay at blt

seriously though thats awesome...and who cares SV is still cool!! atleast you are going to be there

where are you staying for the second part of your stay?

 

[figment fan21]

double post... wierd

 

[figment fan21]

lol I showed DF what i wrote on here because i was so excited about getting the points and he goes "why are you talking about a bacon lettuce and tomato sandwich?"

I could care less if we are in SV! We rented a SV @ AKV and we ended up getting a preferred view over looking tha animals.... I dont know how that happened but I wonder if you go when it isn't as busy they'll move you to a better room if they can... but who knows if that'll ever happen again. The "views" haven't really been determined yet either, when i looked into it they said MK view was going to be all floors higher than the monorail track facing the MK, Lake Views were on the other side of the building, and Standard views were facing the MK but below the Monorail track. But that was all speculation since it hasn't even opened yet.

As for where we are staying for the honeymoon we are either going to BWV or VWL. My aunt owns DVC and she is giving up our honeymoon stay as our wedding gift. She owns at OKW so shes going to try to get us into BWV's at the seven month mark. I've heard its hard though because of the food and wine festival most of the EPCOT resorts book up fast but we have our fingers crossed.

Where are you staying for your Disneymoon?

 

[figment fan21]

Just thought i'd let you all know that....





1 Year and 3 Months until the wedding!!!!!




It seems so far away but honestly we've been engaged now for 8 months!!! It really flew by!

 

[MainStMandy]

OMG Katie!! Your excitement was exactly what I needed this morning!!! That is so wonderful that you will be staying at BLT!! Take lots and lots of pictures!!

Oh and happy 1 year and 3 months till your wedding day!!
